Folio 41
‘Few in number … now the Lord … has made you like the stars of heaven in multitude … ‘There he became a great nation..’ The border design on fol. 41a seems again to be wholly decorative. It is formed in part by the vertical architectonic shapes and is inhabited in the lower border by a symmetrical scene in which two hounds chase two hares. A hybrid figure supports the word panel, with a human head and hands, reptilian mid-section, wings and hooved feet. Verso, the marginal decoration surrounds the word panel. Two stork like creatures stand at the top of the page facing each other.
Leaf size is approximately 255 x 190mm (10 x 7.5in)
